Hey guys,

I have been trying to find a cheaper solution than standing up full PCs in every room that I need to stream to. I picked up a mibox (android TV) and was having a very good experience until recently.

About 2 weeks ago live tv became unreliable. Emby tunes to the channel we want then after a minute playback stops. I will try to figure out how to export logs from this mibox.

I figured it out after looking at my unifi controller.  the app was pausing and buffering pretty constantly.  I found that I needed to turn down the bit-rate in the app to (21Mbps) below what the controller showed the device's throughput Rx statistics was (24 Mbps).
